Four Acts of Recovery (2025)

Özet

Four Acts of Recovery, is a video piece following a fishing family living in the Indus Delta of Pakistan as they use drawing as a means to overcome unprecedented infrastructural violence and climate collapse. Set in a rapidly submerging delta region, the work depicts how coastal communities employ and transform visual expression to create new forms of faith, resistance, and belonging. It explores the emerging trend of mural painting depicting ancestral creeks and shrines, connecting it to the tradition of talismanic depictions in Islamic culture.
